Title:

MET-UBE2H Fusion as a Novel Mechanism of Acquired EGFR Resistance in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Excerpt:
...a repeat liquid biopsy was performed, which showed an acquired MET-UBE2H fusion gene by next-generation sequencing...The disease progressed, so the patient was switched to crizotinib (250 mg twice daily)...She achieved a partial response and progression-free survival at more than 6.5 months...We presented the first case involving a patient with the MET-UBE2H fusion gene who experienced a dramatic and durable antitumor response to crizotinib after acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI.
